The best way I think is:
- start guest in paused mode (the qemu-kvm process is instantiated and
console accessible)
virsh start vm_name --paused
- attach to guest console (eg spice in my example below; if other guests
running, the port could be 5901, 5902 or another one)
remote-viewer spice://localhost:5900 &
- while keeping an eye to the console window resume the guest
virsh resume vm_name
HIH,
